Quick Recap

Dear all,

A lot has happened since we last posted in the summer. I think you will probably we aware of most of it already, but we all love recaps. Here goes:

1. On the 4th November 2008, Barack Obama became President-elect. For some reason we were crazy-excited about this in the UK. And I was as taken in by Obamamania as the rest. And now we expect him to love us as much as we love him, but there’s been some suggestion that he might hold a tiny grudge, seeing as we tortured his grandpa.

2. McKey became the 11th America’s Next Top Model. I’m not sure whether this rise to power is as significant as the aforementioned, but it was pretty groundbreaking. Finally we have a non-rainbow spewing and actually attractive winner. I’m so proud of mama-Tyra.

3. Celeste and I started sixth form. We can now make tea during the day.

4. We had lovely summers. And are looking forward to lovely winters. (Like, literally. I’m not trying to make some analogy about our approaching middle age).

5. The world was gripped by economic recession, which strangely gave Gordo a boost up in the polls. I think the phase “Who’s yo daddy” is appropriate (although my condolences to the thousands of newly unemployed)

6. Does Snoop Dogg use an umbrella? FO’ DRIZZLE!

Thanks.
